Work underway to debottleneck to 7.0-7.5 Mtpa at the Run of Mine grade of ~2 g/t

Resource extension drilling underway

Targets generated by 3D seismic survey

Encouraging results potentially extending mineralisation along strike

Shallow, potentially low cost extensions of mine life

Studies underway to incorporate ~3 Moz of existing resource outside current reserves into mine plan

Aim to maintain current operating margin and extend mine life

Regional exploration continues

Sirius transaction highlights Acquisition agreement announced 25 May 2015

Clear strategic rationale for transaction

Acquisition of Sirius is consistent with IGO's clearly defined growth strategy

Delivers shareholders of both companies exposure to Tropicana and Nova

Combines Sirius’ near term development asset with IGO’s strong cash flows

Combined company has a portfolio of high quality assets (margin, mine life, jurisdiction and relevancy)

Transaction unanimously recommended by SIR Board(1) and supported by 35% shareholder, Mark Creasy

Scheme meeting to be held 3 September 2015

Nova Portal(1) The Board of Sirius has unanimously recommended that all Sirius shareholders vote in favour of the Transaction Resolutions, in the absence of a

superior proposal (Refer to the 25 May 2015 ASX announcement for further details).

For the Open Pit Mineral Resource estimate, mineralisation in the Havana, Havana South, Tropicana and Boston Shaker areas w as calculated w ithin a US$1,550/oz pit optimisation at an AUD:USD exchange rate of 1.03 (A$1,500/oz).2. The Open Pit Mineral Resources have been estimated using the geostatistical technique of Uniform Conditioning, using cut-off grades of 0.3g/t Au for Transported and Saprolite material, 0.4g/t Au for Transitional and Fresh material.3. The Havana Deeps Underground Mineral Resource estimate has been reported outside the US$1,550/oz pit optimisation at a cut-off grade of 1.73g/t Au, w hich w as calculated using a gold price of US$2,000/oz (AUD:USD 1.05) (A$1,896/oz).4. The Havana Deeps Underground Mineral Resource w as estimated using the geostatistical technique of Ordinary Kriging using average drill hole intercepts.6. Mining depletion as at 30 June 2014 has been removed from the 2014 resource estimate.7. Resources are inclusive of Reserves.8.

1. Mineral Resources include massive sulphide and stringer sulphide mineralisation. Massive sulphide resources aregeologically defined; stringer sulphide resources for 2014 are reported above cut-off grades of 0.6% Cu for Bentley and 0.7%Cu for Teutonic Bore.2. Block modelling mainly used ordinary kriging grade interpolation methods w ithin w ireframes for all elements and density. TheFlying Spur lens, part of the Bentley deposit, w as estimated using the Inverse Distance Squared Weighting method (IDW2). The new Flying Spur Mineral Resource comprised 449,000t @ 12.6% Zn, 0.6% Cu, 209g/t Ag and 1.7g/t Au (Inferred).3. Mining depletion as at 30 June 2014 has been removed from the 2014 resource estimate for Bentley. Historic mining has been removed from the 2009 resource estimate for Teutonic Bore.4. Resources are inclusive of Reserves.5. Mining of the Jaguar deposit w as completed on 29 February 2014. Economic evaluation of remaining resources has show n that they are not economic at foreseeable metal prices w ithin a reasonable timeframe and have been removed from the 2014 inventory.6. The Teutonic Bore resource estimate is now reported in compliance w ith JORC Code 2012 reporting guidelines. The model is unchanged from the 2009 model.7.

1. All Ore Reserves tonnes are rounded to the nearest one hundred thousand tonnes and grade to the nearest 1/10th percentage/gram per tonne.2. Gold (Au) grades are Inferred at Wilga due to a paucity of gold assays in historic drilling. Revenue from Au in the Wilga ore w as included in the estimation of the Ore Reserve. The contribution to Revenue of this Au w as estimated to be $8.65 per gram of Au in situ. This inclusion w as not material to the value of the mining envelopes considered and did not w arrant dow ngrading of any portion of the Ore Reserve attributable to Wilga. The contribution from Wilga represents 18% of the total Ore Reserve.*3. Historic mining depletion for Wilga has been removed from the Ore Reserve estimate.4. The Competent Persons statement is incorporated in the JORC Code (2012) Competent Persons Statements section of this report.5.

1. All Mineral Resources tonnes have been rounded to the nearest one thousand tonnes and grade to the nearest 1/10th percentage/gram per tonne.2. Mineral Resources include massive sulphide and stringer sulphide mineralisation. Massive sulphide Mineral Resources are geologically defined; stringer sulphide resources are reported above cut-off grades of 0.5% Cu.*3. Gold (Au) grades for Wilga are all inferred due to paucity of Au grade data in historic drilling.4. Block modelling used ordinary kriging grade interpolation methods w ithin w ireframes for all elements and density.5. Mining depletion as at end of historic mine life (1996) has been removed from the Mineral Resource estimate for Wilga.6. Mineral Resources are inclusive of Ore Reserves.7. The Competent Persons statement is incorporated in the JORC Code (2012) Competent Persons Statements section of this report.8.
